Oven Light It sounds daft, but I cannot get the cover off the main oven light in order to replace the bulb. Any suggestions?

On my older Jenair, it is on the upper surface of the oven. It has a glass cover that would need to be removed to access the bulb.
Could be the switch or connections at the switch that is preventing the bulb from operating. Depending on age of oven and frequency of use of the light, oven bulbs last a long time. Mine is still good after 26 years!

Place a cloth on the oven floor to protect the oven light and glass cover.
Replacing the oven light bulb/cleaning the glass cover

1. Remove the glass cover by turning it anticlockwise and then clean it.
2. If necessary:

Replace bulb with a 40 watt, 230 V, 300 °C heat-resistant
oven light bulb.
3. Refit the glass cover.

Repair the bulb holder and refit the bulb with cover.

The oven lights are 12-volt, 5-watt maximum halogen bulbs. They
will come on when the oven door is opened. On double oven
models, both upper and lower lights will come on when either
door is opened. The oven lights will not work during the Self-
Cleaning cycle. When the oven door is closed, press OVEN
LIGHT to turn them on or off.
To Replace:
Before replacing, make sure the oven is off and cool.
1. Disconnect power.
2. Remove glass light cover by grasping the front edge and
pulling away from oven




3. Remove bulb from socket.
4. Replace bulb, replace bulb cover by snapping back into wall.
5. Reconnect power.

I will assume that the ZDQ695 bulb replacement procedure is the same as that for the ZDQ695A. The ZDQ695 uses a 25 W appliance light bulb (300 C). Unplug the appliance before starting. Open the oven and remove the racks for space to work. Insert a flat blade screwdriver between the side of the oven and the glass cover above the bulb. With your hand support the cover and pry it away from the wall of the oven until it releases. Push the top of the cover towards the oven wall and use your fingers to pry the bottom of the cover away from the housing. Then remove the cover. Unscrew the old bulb (counterclockwise) and then remove the bulb. Then screw in the new bulb. Replace the glass cover (position the flange so that it is pointing to the back of the oven) by pushing it into the hole to cover the bulb assembly. Replace the shelves and close the oven door before plugging the oven back in.

Zanussi manuals are available here: http://www.zanussi.co.uk/en-gb/Support/Manuals/ . Enter the model number in the search box. Alternatively, the manual for the ZDQ695 is available here: http://kitchen.manualsonline.com/manuals/mfg/zanussi/zdq_695.html . Click on the Get This Manual button.

I hope this helps.

If the oven is heating up o/k, then I would suggest that the oven pilot bulb has failed, I have come across this on several occasions, it usually just means replacing the oven pilot light.

for model 9815xub, the oven light consists of a light bulb cover(clear plastic, sometimes called lens) the light bulb receptacle( pressure mounted against the back wall of the oven ) and the light bulb, standard appliance bulb that screws into the receptacle, the same as the lens, it also screws into the receptacle, twist counter clockwise to remove both the lens and the bulb. as a reference try the following site:
www.partselect.com/ and type your model number in the window, then click on the oven cavity breakdown to view thwe assembly.

You can replace the light bulb(s) in your range/oven, though you may need to remove a glass covering or dome to reach it. Most interior oven lights use a universal 40 watt appliance bulb.
